Open/Select KendoUI PanelBar


When I click on a bar of a PanelBar I both select the option as well I toggle it (open / close). Is it possible not to open it but just select and click on the icon for controlling open/close?


Solution

  • I am afraid this is not supported. As a partial work-around you can make the PanelBar expand and select only by clicking the expand arrow like this:

    $('#panelbarName>li').on('click',function(e){
       if(!$(e.target).is('.k-icon')){
          e.stopPropagation(); 
       }       
    })
    

    Unfortunately there is much more logic to be handled to just select (highlight the item) without expanding it.
